Notes

A very detailed and pleasing item from Corgi as part of their Corgi Comics range, in all original and complete condition (1969-72). This is the slightly rarer version with white wheels. It has all the moving figures of Popeye, Olive Oyl, Swee’Pea, Bluto and Wimpey, with the original little card packing piece still included. It works perfectly – as you push the model along the figures of Bluto and Wimpey go up and down whilst Popeye moves from side to side as he scans the horizon, and Olive Oyl sways from side to side as she drives along! A delightful item which has remained completely untouched – complete with its cans of spinach and paper labels still attached!
Little Swee’Pea is safely stowed in the life boat, which can be dropped down – both plastic attachments are absolutely fine on this example. The labels are complete (minor age transparency), and both jewelled headlights are present. The chimney has been protected by the little original card packing piece, so the chrome finish is unrubbed.

A superb, completely unused example.
Occasional tiny mark only.
The cellophane-fronted window box is complete with all polystyrene pacing pieces and original cellophane (small storage tear). Little tear to the card.
Light age grubbiness.
Little original white card packing piece which fits over the chimney.
The inner card display piece is crisp, clean and bright. Tiny crumple where the card packing piece has come into contact with the top cut-out section.

Guaranteed to bring a smile to your face – every time!
